The Girl Up Scholarship Fund is a powerful initiative designed to support girls and young women passionate about advancing gender equality while pursuing higher education. In partnership with Noble Panacea, this scholarship offers an incredible opportunity to receive $2,500 per academic year for STEAM scholars, who are focused on using their knowledge in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics to drive social change.
The funds are directly disbursed to the recipient’s college or university, ensuring that financial barriers do not stand in the way of these future leaders. By eliminating financial obstacles, the Girl Up Scholarship empowers young women to focus on their academic goals and their passion for creating a more just world. Girls can apply for these scholarships each year, giving them the chance to continue their educational journeys with the support they need to succeed.
In celebration of International Women’s Day, we’re excited to spotlight the inspiring stories of Anusha from the United Arab Emirates, Laura from Colombia, Linthoi from India, Lola from Argentina, Naobi from Mexico, and Tomisin from Nigeria—each of whom is making a meaningful difference in their communities through their scholarship projects. These young women embody the vision of the Girl Up Scholarship Fund—transforming education and creating a ripple effect of positive change across the globe.
